My Everything is the second studio album by American singer Ariana Grande, released on August 22, 2014 by Republic Records. Grande describes My Everything as "an evolution" from her debut album, Yours Truly (2013); it explores more mature themes and genres. Upon its release, the album debuted atop the Billboard 200, selling 169,000 copies in its first week. It debuted at number one in Australia and Canada as well, and peaked in the top ten of 20 countries worldwide.
My Everything was preceded by the lead single "Problem", which features Australian rapper Iggy Azalea. After its release on April 28, 2014, it debuted at number three the week of May 17, selling over 400,000 copies in first week sales and eventually peaking at number two on the Billboard Hot 100. "Break Free", featuring German-Russian musician and producer Zedd, was released as the second single on July 2, and peaked at the fourth position on the Hot 100. The fourth single, "Love Me Harder", featuring The Weeknd, was released on September 30, 2014 and peaked at number seven. For the 2015 Grammy Awards, My Everything was nominated for Best Pop Vocal Album.[1] As of March 2016, the album has sold 692,000 copies in the United States.
Background
"It's an album that I want to do a little bit different. I don't want it to sound like an extension of Yours Truly. I want it to sound like an evolution. I want to explore more sounds and experiment a little bit. I have a bunch of ideas I'm very excited about and a lot of stuff cooking."
— Grande, on the album.[2]
Grande's debut studio album Yours Truly was released on September 3, 2013, and was met with critical acclaim. Later that month, in an interview with Rolling Stone, Grande stated that she had begun writing and working on her second studio album and had already completed two songs.[2] Recording sessions began in October 2013 with Grande working with previous producers from her debut album Harmony Samuels and Tommy Brown.[3][4] Grande was initially aiming at releasing the album around February 2014.[5] In January 2014, Grande confirmed she had been working with new producers Ryan Tedder, Savan Kotecha, Benny Blanco, Key Wane and Max Martin.[6][7][8] Grande stated in late February that she wanted to name her album after a song she had finished that weekend that is very honest and makes her cry.[9][10]
It was announced on March 3, 2014 that Grande would be featured on the fifth single from Chris Brown's album X titled "Don't Be Gone Too Long".[11] The single was originally set for release on March 25, 2014. However, it was postponed due to Brown being sent to jail awaiting trial on assault charges.[12] Grande had announced the song's delay on March 17, 2014 via Twitter stating "My loves… so obviously some things have changed recently... So we have to delay the dbgtl countdown, some things are out of our control".[12] That same night she held a live stream to make up for the single's delay, where she previewed four new songs from her second album.[13][14] Two days following the announcement, Grande revealed that due to the song's delay, she would be releasing the first single from her upcoming sophomore studio album instead.[15][16] She finished working on the album in late May 2014.[17] On June 28, Grande confirmed the title of the album to be My Everything and the release date to be August 25, 2014.[18] The photos for the packaging in the album were taken on May 27, 2014.[19] Grande stated that she chose the cover artwork because she felt that "each song is so strongly themed that I just wanted to have a very simple overall cover. So that within each song we could create more visual themes."[20]
Release and promotion
On June 28, 2014, Grande announced that her album would be available for pre-order through her website. Those who pre-ordered the album would get exclusive access to Grande's concert stream that will be held on August 24 where she will perform songs from her album live for the first time.[21] Grande embarked on her first world tour titled The Honeymoon Tour in support of the album which began in February 2015.[22]
In the weeks preceding the release of My Everything, several previews of songs from the album were released. On July 7, 2014 Grande posted a teaser of "Best Mistake" onto her Instagram page. The song features rapper Big Sean.[23][24] On July 27, 2014, a preview of "Be My Baby" was filmed at a concert of featured artist, Cashmere Cat, and uploaded to YouTube, by a fan. Grande retweeted a link to the video on her Twitter profile.[25][26] She then retweeted a second snippet on August 4.[27][28] Twenty days before the album's release, Grande released a preview of "Love Me Harder", which features Canadian recording artist The Weeknd, onto her Instagram profile.[29] On August 20, four songs from the album, "Why Try", "Be My Baby", "Love Me Harder", and "Just a Little Bit of Your Heart", were released courtesy of MTV.[30]
On August 24, Grande opened the 2014 MTV Video Music Awards with "Break Free", and then later appeared to perform "Bang Bang" with Jessie J and Nicki Minaj. Following her performance on the show, My Everything was released worldwide on August 25, 2014. During the week of its release, commercials aired on television to promote My Everything as well as the Beats Pill.[31] On August 29, Grande performed "Problem", "Break Free", "Bang Bang", and "Break Your Heart Right Back" on The Today Show. In addition to performing, Grande was also interviewed, forecasted to weather and brought her grandmother for an interview of her own.[32] On September 5, Grande performed the title track from My Everything during the Stand Up to Cancer television program in dedication to her grandfather, who had died from cancer earlier that year.[33]

According to Metacritic, which assigns a weighted average score out of 100 to ratings and reviews from mainstream critics, My Everything received an average of 64, based on 19 reviews, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[54] Rob Sheffield, writing for Rolling Stone, says, "My Everything proves, she's already a major force" on a release showing how Grande is growing up because "It's a confident, intelligent, brazen pop statement, mixing bubblegum diva vocals with EDM break-beats."[63] Adam Markovitz says for Entertainment Weekly how "Grande has picked a set of songs so lyrically bland, sonically inoffensive, and artistically empty that they produce a zero-impact experience—musical vanilla fro-yo poured directly into your ears."[58] Markovitz states, "It's by no means painful; there are even moments of fun, including the thigh-high-boot swagger of summer smashes 'Problem' and 'Bang Bang,' both of which borrow their strut from coheadliners Iggy Azalea and Jessie J with Nicki Minaj, respectively."[58] Mikael Wood, writing on behalf of the Los Angeles Times, finds Grande in impressive form because she is "deeply cheerful yet with guns blazing, an innocent newcomer no more."[60]
Elysa Gardner, on behalf of USA Today, writes that Grande "digs into ballads and more emotionally earnest fare" simultaneously, doing so with a "girlish playfulness... and a sense of growing confidence", and she is "Blending sugar and spice" together to create a pleasing concoction to satisfy the varying palates of her supporters."[65] Stephen Thomas Erlewine says for AllMusic that "Grande doesn't embody the songs the way an old-fashioned diva would, but she functions as a likeable pop ringleader, stepping aside when the track calls for it and then unleashing a full-throated wail when it's her time to shine."[55] Jason Lipshutz from Billboard writes that the album "turned Grande into a dance artist, pop artist, and soul artist" with a more uniformed and more mature sound.[57] Gary Graff says on behalf of The Oakland Press that it is "a solid step forward for Grande, which makes 'there's more to see' an intriguing promise rather than a threat."[66] In a 7.7 out of ten review for Pitchfork, Meaghan Garvey explains how it "feels like Grande's arrival as a true pop fixture, not just a charming novelty... and while the best songs here may not be timeless, they certainly feel right for right now."[62]
In a more mixed review, Jim Farber from the New York Daily News writes that Grande's "sexed-up" vocals and range are shown off but the "constant jerking back and forth between styles interrupts any sense of flow."[67] Caroline Sullivan from The Guardian praises Grande's vocals but feels that the songs are indistinct and have a "facelessness" to them.[59] Annie Zaleski writes for The A.V. Club how it "is so well-constructed and designed to succeed, it rarely loosens up enough to let any depth of character (or real surprises) surface", yet it "further establishes Grande as a consummate performer and vocal interpreter."[56] Kitty Empire from the The Observer notes that Grande's vocal ability is showcased but that the songs lack personality.[61] Evan Sawdey, writing for PopMatters, comments that Grande is mimicking other artists, leaving her distinguished voice with only the support of hollow lyricism.[68] In agreement, Will Robinson rates the album a 2.5 out of five for Sputnikmusic, telling how it "ends up ringing hollow."[69] Adelle Platon writing for Vibe magazine, and she is positive towards the album's sound and compares Grande's vocals to those of Mariah Carey and Christina Aguilera.[70] Andrew Chan writing on behalf of Slant Magazine how "she emphasizes the sheer fun of singing over any sense of emotional urgency", yet "What her voice lacks in depth, texture, and variety will probably take time to acquire."[64]
The album was placed at number eleven on Digital Spy's Best Albums of 2014 list.[71] Jessica Goodman and Ryan Kistobak of The Huffington Post included the album on their list of 2014's best releases, complimenting that the album makes sure "Grande's sheer talent did not go unnoticed".[72]
Awards
The album has received two nominations. In early 2015, it was nominated for Favorite Album at the People's Choice Awards.[73] Afterwards, it received a nomination for Best Pop Vocal Album at the Grammy Awards.[74]
Commercial performance
On August 27, Billboard reported that My Everything would sell over 160,000 copies in first-week United States sales.[75] My Everything officially debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and sold 169,000 copies in its first week.[76] In doing so, Grande attained her second consecutive number-one album in the country, becoming the first female artist to have her first two albums debut at number one since Scottish singer Susan Boyle did it with I Dreamed a Dream (2009) and The Gift (2010).[76] The album has sold 692,000 copies in the United States as of March 2016.[77] In March 2016, the RIAA certified the album double platinum, for combined album sales, on-demand audio, video streams, track sales equivalent of 2 million album-equivalent units.
In Japan, My Everything remained atop the iTunes Store charts for nine weeks, thus earning Grande the longest at number one in 2014, breaking the previous record held by Frozen: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack.[78]
